Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add a large pinch of salt. Add the angel hair pasta and cook according to the package instructions (typically 4 to 5 minutes).
  2. While the pasta cooks, heat a large frying pan on medium high-heat. Add olive oil and cook the garlic for 2 minutes, or until fragrant but not browned.
  3. Add chili and oregano to the pan and stir to combine.
  4. Reserve 3 tablespoons of the cooking water from the pasta in a small bowl or mug. Then drain the pasta with a fine mesh sieve or strainer.
  5. Add cooked pasta to the pan alongside 1 tablespoon of cooking water. Stir well to coat the pasta in the oil. Add the rest of the cooking water if needed to help form a thick and glossy sauce.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to taste, and stir the fresh parsley through the pasta.
  7. Transfer the pasta to plates and garnish with grated Parmesan cheese, if desired.
